Now, before anyone jumps to conclusions, let me make one thing absolutely clear—I have nothing against Rahul Gandhi. Seriously, why would I? He has never borrowed money from me and forgotten to return it. He hasn’t cut me off in traffic or taken my spot in a long queue. I have no personal grudges, no hidden agenda. If anything, I admire his resilience—losing elections with such consistency takes real dedication!
But what fascinates me is the unconditional loyalty some people have toward him—without ever questioning whether it’s the right thing for him, for Congress, or for the country. It’s as if his political presence is a non-negotiable rule, like traffic jams in Mumbai or power cuts during an IPL match.
Let’s be honest—Rahul Gandhi’s political career is like a daily soap opera. You never quite understand the plot, but you can’t look away. He resigns, then doesn’t really leave. He disappears, then makes a dramatic return. His speeches are unpredictable, his strategies are… unique, and somehow, despite all odds, there’s always someone insisting that this time, he will rise. It’s like waiting for a WiFi connection that keeps dropping—you keep hoping for a stable signal, but deep down, you know better.
And that’s what led me to this realization—why is it so important that he stays in politics? If he leaves, Congress might actually be forced to find a leader who wants to win. That sounds like a lot of work. Besides, Indian politics without Rahul Gandhi would be like Bollywood without nepotism—simply unnatural. He is the face of dynasty politics, a living testament to India’s favorite tradition: If your ancestors ruled, so will you. Passion is optional; surname is everything.
And let’s not forget—he’s an asset to the ruling party! His speeches alone are enough to keep their PR team relaxed. Why spend money on election campaigns when you can just replay his interviews? If Rahul quits, who will generously provide free publicity for the opposition?
Then there’s the entertainment factor. His political philosophy is a mix of deep, almost spiritual wisdom and… complete unpredictability. Who else would explain employment policies using Coca-Cola vendors? Who else could turn a simple question into an existential riddle? Without Rahul Gandhi, our Parliament debates would lose their unintentional comedic relief, meme pages would go bankrupt, and Twitter would suddenly feel too serious.
So, after my coffee debate, I had a revelation—Rahul Gandhi is not just a politician; he is an experience. He must stay in politics, not for Congress, not for governance, but for the sheer joy of keeping democracy interesting. Because in the end, it’s not about whether it’s right or wrong—it’s about tradition, nostalgia, and the pure entertainment of watching an unpredictable, unstoppable political saga unfold.
